If you're only working with about six minutes per webisode you have to get a lot of info packed into those scenes. That's perfect for a Zombie Apocalypse storyline because all the tropes that setting implies get us right into the action.
And it's the tropes that make this work so well! Benjamin Papac as Matt, as the human guy looking to lose his virginity and, oh yeah, help save humanity is brilliant at maintaining his laser focus on what's important: Matt's sexual needs.
Hartley Sawyer is convincing as Joansey, the prototype android built to fight zombies but winds up being Matt's wing man, er, wing BOT or bot-blocker as Matt's focus quickly becomes...
Emma, played by Jessica Lu. But Emma's agenda is finding and rescuing her sister, trapped in a neighboring town in the Norwegian countryside.
The story clicks along at breakneck speed and the three leads all play it brilliantly, as Matt persues Emma, Emma begins to fall for the Boy Scout style qualities of Joansey and Joansey provides the Intel and comic relief that keep this from ever getting too freaky.
And let's share the praise for all the zombies that keep the tension going, most especially Sandra Instebø who plays Heidi, Matt's girlfriend who becomes zombified nearly immediately and stalks him the rest of the webisodes.
